Re: Lions vs. Rams week 1 predictions thread.

Billy, I don't know where you get your info from, but you better find another source.

Rams LT is Roger Saffold. Not a rookie. However, they do have a starting guard that is a rookie. And Janoris Jenkins is listed as a starter in their secondary. All others are not rookies.

While the Rams may be an improved team, they still don't have the firepower to keep up with the Lions. They have a shaky offensive line, their secondary is definitely sub par, and their receivers are nothing to write home about. Steven Jackson and Isaiah Pead may give the Lions defense some fits, but I can't see it being enough against a healthy Stafford to Johnson/Young/Burleson/Pettigrew/Scheffler. Our defensive line will be the thing of nightmares for Bradford. Our only real question mark will be the health of our secondary.

Stafford throws forover 400 yards and four TDs. Our defense gives up 130 yards rushing, but just over 200 yards in the air.
